Excerpt From the Story:

The relationship between a parent and a kid is like the relationship between a man and a plant.The man sows the seeds and when he sees the first shoot of green emerging from the soul,he feels that is the best moment in his life.As the shoot grows he sees it every day,waters it ,protects it and nurture it.Once it becomes a plant, he relishes every moment looking at the new leaves ,bud, flowers as they blossom.When it grows bigger he may remove it from the pot and may replant it elsewhere. Now the plant need little less attention.Once it grows into a tree, you find that the tree has other duties as well. It has several branches ,many take shelter under the tree and several birds make the tree their home. The man the gardener who sowed the seed is not the sole owner. At best he can look at the tree ,feel it and take shelter.

A story about relationship. 

A flawless fiction with a surprising twist at the end .

Why are we so judgemental without even knowing what is happening to other's  life?

Don't you think A relief from our guilt is much  like a drizzle in the desert?
